Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, totally worn out and screaming,
"WOO HOO, what a ride!"

Wonderful idea!


In today's Shelf Awareness Pro (7/5/12) they included a story about an empty Wal-Mart that was converted into a new public library in McAllen, Texas! It's the length of two football fields!! How nice to see something built up instead of torn down.

    Very cool. Our local library has been trying to expand for a number of years now and hasn't raised enough money yet, that one should have more than enough room for years to come!

    That IS a good idea! A town over has 2 empty Lowes buildings. Terrible.
